From the reviews
I’d like to take a moment to recognize Phillip Miladin, and congratulate him on the opening of his newest gym, Guerrilla Warfare. Phillip is not only an exceptional coach, but also a dedicated mentor and an even better friend.

Hands down the best environment I’ve ever been apart of. Took on Jui Jitsu a little over 7 months ago to just try and get in shape ended up falling in love with it and haven’t left and it’s been a big part of my life and my health these last few months Coach Phil is a one of a kind guy!
My daughter was preparing for an upcoming tournament and we recently allowed her to drop in at Guerrilla Warfare Jiu Jitsu in Angleton, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From the moment she walked in, the staff made her feel welcome and at ease.
New to BJJ? Start at Guerrilla Warfare Jiu Jitsu
Guerrilla Warfare Jiu Jitsu comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never rolled or set foot on a mat, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or flexible to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the intensity to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard rolling — reputable gyms build fundamentals (positions, escapes, and basic submissions) for weeks, live rolling eases in gradually, and tapping early keeps every roll safe. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out, and leave your ego at the door. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first BJJ class at Guerrilla Warfare Jiu Jitsu
Nervous about walking into a BJJ gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling basic positions and escapes with a partner — not hard sparring. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: athletic wear you can move in (or a gi if you have one); you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and a mouthguard if you have one — many gyms lend a loaner gi for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gi (or a rashguard and shorts for no-gi) and a mouthguard. Live rolling eases in gradually, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
